I get a little confused sometimes with these bottlings, but here is what I understand. This is the 16th edition of the Woodford Reserve Very Fine Very Rare Bourbon. Most of the juice in here is 16 years old though some could be a little younger, and the distillery has unveiled that Chris Morris’ 2003 juice is also in this, which is 17 years old. If you’re still following me, good.
These bottlings are aptly named, and the prices that I’m seeing for these have skyrocketed all the way up to $500/bottle. The average price now is almost $450, partly for the novelty and for the lack of bottles to go round. Digging deep in my Restaurant vault, I was able to find two bottles of these that have been perfectly stored and tucked away.
I get a ton of burnt orange, brown sugar and tobacco spices on the nose with a smooth and sweet mid-palate that boasts notes of caramel and honey. The finish continues to evolve with each sip and peel back new layers. Bottled at 90.4 Proof and hidden well in the smoothness of the blend.

The third release of three batches from Booker’s Bourbon 2023 Collection is Booker’s Batch 2023-03 ‘Might Fine Batch.’ These mini-releases have become extremely popular, and for good reason. “The vanilla and brown sugar sweet notes come through very well from the white oak barrels this bourbon aged in for over seven years. The taste is great and full bodied; when I added a splash of water, it opened up some great flavors, with a finish that gives a lovely “Kentucky Hug. My Dad would say that this is a Mighty Fine batch of Booker’s.” -Fred Noe
True whiskey and Knob Creek enthusiasts are going to go nuts for this one. Knob Creek Rye is as outstanding as it is rare but today we’re lucky enough to bring to you, my own single barrel of it. This is a big gold expression of Rye that holds nothing back. On the nose, there are hints of dill, rye and essence of charred oak. On the palate, you are hit over the head with baking spice, honey and freshly baked bread. The finish is certainly a warm “Kentucky Hug” that goes on forever.
Today I snagged a really special single barrel that I have been working on for nearly two years now with Old Forester. It’s a 128.2 proof dynamo that will blow you away, and you’ll love every single sip. The nose is of fresh leather, baking spices & cocoa. On the pallet, this one is a monster & hits you with baked apple. brown sugar, vanilla & cinnamon. The finish goes on for two days long with notes of fig, cherries & clove. It’s big, but she’s a beauty.

“There are 6,500 cases of the superb 2006 Dominus (91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot). Its dark plum/purple color is accompanied by aromas and flavors of truffles, forest floor, black cherries, black currants, and Asian spices. One of the finest wines of the vintage, it is complete, full-bodied, and seamlessly built with beautiful ripe tannins, low acidity, and a luscious, layered mouthfeel. The aromatics are even more evolved and complex than the 2005’s. The 2006 should drink well for 20-25 years. These are the two strongest back to back vintages for Dominus since 1990-1991 and 2001-2002.” -Robert Parker, Jr.
